Subject: [PATCH] Rebuild compiled cln/channels.js to match its source (#1606)

The #1606 fix added 'channel.connected = !!channel.peer_connected' to
server/controllers/cln/channels.ts but the committed compiled artifact
backend/controllers/cln/channels.js was never regenerated, leaving it stale.
Rebuild it so the committed backend output matches its TypeScript source.

+- **Rebuild the compiled CLN channels controller to match its source**
+  ([#1631](https://github.com/Ride-The-Lightning/RTL/pull/1631)).
+  The #1606 fix updated `server/controllers/cln/channels.ts` to mirror `peer_connected` onto the
+  legacy `connected` field, but the committed compiled artifact
+  `backend/controllers/cln/channels.js` was never regenerated, so it lagged its source. Rebuilt it
+  so the committed backend output includes the connected-mirror line.
